FA Cup - opposition allowed to make 5 subs when I could only make 3

The current rule for substitutions in the FA Cup is that teams are permitted to make up to 5 substitutions across 3 stoppages. Here, if your 3 substitutions were made across three stoppages then this will be why you were only allowed to substitute 3 players.

Hi Ewan, yes but as I say, I made my three subs at the same time in one go.
